Took my money and my mail
Mailed 2 boxes to same address on the same day using Track and Confirm. Both boxes had 10 X 12 bright blue labels written on in Sharpie black pen. I paid for PRIORITY MAIL for a 2-3 day delivery. USPS advertises this everywhere and charges more for it. Both boxes made it to Denver in 2 days. 1 box delivered to its destination the next day. 2nd box disappears. 10 days later, Track and Confirm says my box is in Maryland but no one can explain, nor can anybody find my box. I've called customers service 4 times. I've been told a "supervisor" will call me back, but so far no call. My calls to customer service get a lot of I'm Sorry's but no action. USPS has taken my money, my property and gets away with it. At the very least, this is false advertising, fraud, a broken contract, and in my mind theft. I'm out the $25 priority delivery (which I now learn is not guaranteed), the contents of my box, the time effort and money to put the box together and mail off. No more boxes in the mail EVER!

No mail
USPS carriers in Marion, IN have been missing whole streets! There is a bar at the corner and several of them are there daily.
We have expected mail but have not received any in over four days! We are constantly getting a different carrier.
Our complaint was glossed over by the post office. You would think that with the rising cost a friggin stamps the service would be better!
This is just another "Bushism" as far as I am concerned. We oay to keep the post office running and yet we are treated this way!
The USPS should be abolished in favour of email for everyone.

Inefficiency, stupidity and incompetence
The USPS was unable to give me detailed information about two identical charges submitted to American Express on the same day because their PO Box clerk was out for the day. No one else in the PO has access to the information. When I asked to speak with the Postmaster I was told he was out till Thursday and when inquired who was taking his place, I was told it was the route delivery supervisor with whom I was speaking. When I asked for the number of the Postmaster General in DC I was told they do not have that number. This bespeaks great inefficiency and is very sad, indeed! I am old enough to remember happier and more efficient times; times when POs were staffed with civil servants who responded with alacrity rather than platitudes which utterly frustrate even the simplest efforts to rectify a problem or make an inquiry. I suggest that this site compile a list of "action" phone numbers where one can get through to a real, live person that can assist in resolving a problem or respond to an inquiry in an interested, energetic, intelligent and resourceful manner. Being served by those who are mentally moribund or who left their brains at home or who simply do not care is a disgrace and an insult to the consumer's intelligence.

Terrible service
I shipped a package from NY to myself in Las Vegas. My package contained 3 antique vases from my grandmother's estate. I purchased $500 of insurance on my package. When I returned to Las Vegas I discovered my vases were all broken. I filled out a PS form 1000 and got an estimate for repair of my vases. I brought my package and claim for to the Crossroads post office for inspection. They inspected my items and packaging, signed and accepted my claim for and gave me a customer copy of the PS 1000 form. My claim was later denied for "lack of evidence". I appealed the denied claim and it was still rejected stating they could not prove the package was damaged from mishandling. On my 3rd appeal they denied it stating that I didn't even bring in my items for inspection! This is completely untrue because my items were inspected as stated on the PS form 1000. It clearly states that all my packaging and contents were brought in for inspection and were visibly damaged and it was signed by post office personnel. It's clear to me that insurance services offer by the post office is nothing more than a fraudulent scam and that they have no intentions on ever paying back their customers on their claims when they damage or lose their items.

Delivery problems
As I expect - like many other people - financial and other such documents to arrive in my mailbox. Such that I can trust myself to (among other things) pay taxes and not be arrested for not paying taxes. It still comes to mind that the possible ignorance of a financial reality or livelihood could be stolen by the inadequate methods of the post office to account for the human error of the employee delivering to a specific building. Just a general complaint. But, still an important one to make in public.
If you have had any such similar experiences, then why not do something about it other than begging in private to appear on sixty minutes or the today show. This begs the question, how many people have been cost livelihood or any other such financial reality by the occasional, idiotic post office employee who slots their mail in the wrong mailbox?
This strikes me as a logical nightmare for everybody to be concerned about in this day and age. During which we cannot ignore the possibility of human error.

I never got my packages
I was in Oklahoma and decided to mail my packages home to Hawaii. I had three boxes to send and when I was asked how I wanted it sent priority or standard mail the postman told me that packages don't go on a ship anymore for standard mail and it would take 2-6 business days well, it has been a month and when I went to the post office to inquire about my packages I told the post lady what the other postman said 2-6 days and her reply was "he lied to you" it will be 4-8 weeks. If I would have known that I would have sent it priority and she said they have no way of tracing it.
I'm sick there was 5 hundred dollars worth of stuff in
those boxes and when I looked at the receipt later after I left the post office the postman didn't even give me the requested amount of insurance.
I'm at a total loss at what to do..

More and more difficult
We are a mail order company that spent over $10, 000 on postage thru USPS alone.
Every year USPS gets more complicated. It used to be simple.
First Class stamp for the first oz and add oz stamp for each additional. (Still that way - YET!) Used to be able to pull off 2-9 add oz stamps in a strip - tear - lick and stick. Now its hard to get the first oz to come apart. Forget about taking the add oz stamps in strips. They always come apart.
Fixed amount for the 1st 2 lbs. Fixed amounts for the next lbs. - Now has gone to zones. Necessary? Maybe, but much more complicated and time consuming for the shipper.
It costs more when postage goes up. But no one seems to consider the time it takes to get adjusted to a new price scheme and pricing system. They seem to be so intent on pricing it just right, that they have totally forgotten the KISS principle - Keep It Simple Stupid! Just go up and leave it alone.
Last time I needed to get used to mailing envelopes with hard items, different size envelopes AND thicknesses. It's too simple to just go by weight.
Now they have just gone up again. Last time I had to get used to adding for envelopes with rigid items. But at least I could just add another 17 cent stamp that I had out already. Now I have to use a 20 cent stamp! I have to dig in my drawer for a stamp that I am not already using. Why not keep it simple?
Try going online and find the new postage rates. It took me 10 minutes to find them. They should be in a big link on the front page so that the average person can find it right away.
Sometimes I think that in our computerized age, we forget to use simple common sense. I hope that someday someone will catch on that more complicated is not necessarily better or cheaper.
Thanks for listening,
Jonathan Lee, President

Lost my package
This letter is a compliant on the way my claim was handled by USPS. I have purchased insurance for an item that I sold on Amazon.com which was claimed to be lost (proof of insurance claim# 13071910000001015425 on 12/03/2007). I have brought the issue to Truth or Consequences, NM office and talked to John who helped to make a claim for it. I submitted all the information but I received a letter from Joe Hernandez for additional information on it. John had taken the responsibility to be in touch with Joe about it. I submitted the new information on USPS on 01/02/2008 and I paid one dollar for the delivery. Susan in post office indicated after stamping the mail that I shouldn’t have stamp for this internal office mail. John went to vacation and when he came back he said he doesn’t handle it from now showing discomfort of dealing with the person who handles the claim, Joe.
I have been calling Joe before than and he has called back a few times as I couldn’t get a hold of him. Finally I spoke to him and he said he will look into it and call me. When I didn’t hear from him in reasonable time I called him and left a message that my time has expired to appeal. I finally was able to talk to him on the phone when he insisted that he never heard from me and the case is dismissed. I indicated that I have sent him the document and meanwhile John was looking into it. He got upset and said it was my responsibility to get in touch and this should not have been John’s business. I indicated that I listened to what I was told and I have been trying to get a hold of him. He said at this time it is too late. I asked for the main number for San Luis office so I can explain my situation. He said he can’t give me that. He then said he has other customers waiting and when I asked for his manager contact, he hung up the phone. When I tried to call back he didn’t pick up the phone.
I am very sorry that this has been my experience with your office. I have sent other material using USPS and I have bought insurance for some of them. This is the first time I have claimed for the lost item and didn’t know I have to go through so much hardship to get any where. I don’t find this a professional behaviour from USPS and don’t appreciate how Joe handled this case. I have kept a copy of file I have sent him and I am pretty sure I can find a receipt of this material sent to him.
As your customer I am very disappointed to see the way my case was handled. For whatever reason I have been neglected for my many phone calls, the document that I sent given a short period to respond and have talked to John who first took responsibility and then was sorry for not being able to do anything. I have done every thing I was supposed to do and I should have been listened and a solution should have come out rather than a rude behaviour of hanging up the phone.
I request a follow up on this complain. I want to collect my $75 for the merchandise they lost when they lost my package. I also need to have my claim to be reopened due to the lack of appropriate response from the representative Joe Hernandez.

This is an American disgrace
Well where should I start. There is no control or no accountability with these leeches. Lets just say they suck the government dry with fantasy retirements and step in line with our congress what a *** joke. These people work for us and their work ethics are last on the list. Call your rep and complain this *** has got to stop. I can't even understand them when I call to ask questions this is America my friends we had to learn the language too. I am not against immigration that is legal what is wrong with this country?

They screwed our family over
The USPS in Walnut, CA 91789 is horrible. Had an issue with not receiving mail due to not requesting them to hold mail so they started forwarding and cancelling our mail. Went to Bruce, the Postmaster, had to fill out forms, however, nothing had changed. Still did not receive mail.
After seeing the mailman and complaining to him about our situation, we finally started getting our mail after a year and half.
We still were not receiving some mail (after contacting companies and requesting them to resend bills/statements). Went in again after the 5th time and Bruce had a horrible attitude, and kept on blaming us for not picking up our mail. Not picking up our mail is one thing, but after many requests to continue the mail and having me fill out useless forms is not a way to punish us.
